I currently have a good friend staying with me for a few days. Friends are important and these days I cant say I have too many good friends. Its hard to keep in touch when you are scared of alts coming out in public.

Anyway, this friend is a particularly good one because he doesnt mind my alts, he is just as happy to spend time with them as he is to spend time with me. Which is actually really rare, even among my good friends. Even those that know about them and are ok with it, still get uncomfortable around them. So to have a friend who is unfazed by my alts even from the start is amazing.

I guess I just want to say treasure your friends and be there for them because you have no idea when you might need them to be there for you. And dont forget to thank your friends who do stand by you even in tough times - those type of people are rare and you should hold on to them. Ok so that my sentimental advice, bit corny but so true!

I also want to take the time to thank Xiaocaca for allowing me to post her artwork on my blog. Please go look her work - it is amazing and well worth the time.

Welcome

As a survivor of child sexual abuse and a person living with DID I have a lot to heal from. This blog is about my healing journey in relation to my everyday life. If you would like to know more about this blog please check out About Multiplicity.

Please have a look around, and feel free to comment and ask questions. I do read and appreciate all comments and try to respond either in the comments section or posts.

Expressive Arts Carnival

Each month Paul, a friend and the creator of the carnival, posts an activity in which survivors of abuse can participate and submit. At the end of each month Paul then posts each of the pieces of artwork in the carnival.

In his words; "The purpose of these activities is not to provide therapy. Instead, the goal is to build a healing community where people can submit what they have done related to a monthly theme."

Everyone is given full credit, either under a pseudo-name or their real name as the artist chooses. If the artist desires, a link to their blog is attached to their artwork. Overall, I think this is an amazing project and I really encourage everyone to check it out and for those who wish, I hope you participate.
